    While Ben, Johnny and the kids watch a retrospective of the Fantastic Four on Lateline, Reed and Sue try to settle their differences over the split that came between them during the Civil War. Returning home, they tell Ben and Johnny that they are taking a leave of absence from the team to work on their marriage and introduce them to their replacement members: Black Panther and Storm.

    On the 45th anniversary of the Fantastic Four, Mole Man attacks the city and Reed refuses to fight him as nobody has made a big deal about their landmark achievement. Stan Lee shows up to save the day.

    Jameson sends Parker to get photos of Johnny Storm racing and, of course, the incident devolves into a battle between Spider-Man and the Torch.
